police state

A country where the police watch what you do and try to control your life. Where there's cameras in town centres and on public transport. Where you can be arrested because of something you said to a friend about the leaders of your country. Where police stop and search people for no reason. Where you can be detained without charge or trial. Where the state plants bugs with impunity. Where protesters have to get police permits, and where police regularly attack protesters.

Hang on. That sounds like America and Britain today!
Smash all police states! Down with Patriot Act, ASBOs, CCTV, ID cards, biometrics, no fly lists, Terrorism Act, Gitmo, Belmarsh, Public Order Act, and Nazi bastard politicians and pigs!

State of Imaginary Emergency

A self-serving, artificial condition created if for no other reason than to satisfy unrealistic, unsupported, unmet campaign promises; based on equally imaginary 'facts' it stands as a true testament to an utter disregard for due process, a flagrant contempt for Constitutional law and perfectly defines presidential abuse-of-power.
Hey, no government shut-down 2.0!

Look out for the infantile State of Imaginary Emergency...

Do it for state

When your slamming broads, shotgunning beers and sending it with the boys. If you’re at a party, completely fucking wasted, smashing beers on your head and giving in to peer pressure, you’re doing it for state. Full send or no send!
Friend: (throws you a beer) Do it for state!
You: (rips a beauty shotgun) Full fucking send boys!
